Chapter 1587: The Reason Behind It All
oaster. Xiao Jingyu sat in a position close to the front, her face pale and beads of sweat forming on her forehead. Luckily, Li Haiyan gave her a small package of napkins, and as soon as she started s...Meng Zhongcheng's mind was racing, where would Xiao Zheng and the others go To somewhere in Dongcao Or to another city Just as he was racking his brains, a call from Cui Tingjian, deputy secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, came in. Meng Zhongcheng was taken aback and didn't want to answer, but ultimately dared not ignore it: "Secretary Cui Any instructions" "Where are you" Cui Tingjian asked directly, "Are you following Xiao" "...Following...following..." 。"Meng Zhongcheng said, 'They came out from the municipal administrative center and went to the Dongcao Welcoming Guest House, then they hailed a car…' Until here, everything Meng Zhongcheng said was the truth." 。" Cui Tingjian had no patience to listen to the specifics: "So what now Where are they going" "This..." Meng Zhongcheng came up with a thought, "They're getting on the highway, they should be going to Guangdong." 。But, I don't know if they'll turn back or change course along the way..."
"Okay" 。Keep following me closely. 。“Cui Tingjian ordered, “When they reach their destination and get off the car, report to me immediately!” Finally passing one hurdle, Meng Zhongcheng immediately said, “Yes, Secretary Cui!” After hanging up the phone, Meng Zhongcheng was troubled about what to do next He had clearly lost them, yet he still pretended to be following Xiao Zheng and the others. If Cui Tingjian found out this lie, he wouldn't even be able to stay in Dongcao.” 。Let's go to Yue Du, yes, let's go to Yue Du! Since he told Cui Tingjian that Xiao Zheng and they might have gone to Yue Du, then even if he got lost, he had to go! At least this act of tracking still had to be put on!
As it happens, Xiao Zheng just happened to get on the highway to Yue Du. 。Tang Hai Kuo, in the just-past drive, with a slightly dilapidated taxi, overtook, weaved through, and drifted among the rush hour traffic, successfully shaking off the tailing car. This reminded Xiao Zheng and Yang Xuehu of the typhoon night again. Even under conditions of strong winds, heavy rain, and road closures, Tang Hai Kuo persevered, never giving up, using all his skills to bring Xiao Zheng and them from Shantou City to Guangdong Province!
Only then did Tang Hai Kuo let out a gentle sigh: "Secretary Xiao, that tailing car has been shaken off!" "Very good, Old Tang's driving skills are top-notch!" Xiao Zheng praised, "Old Tang, I have another question. You've been around here these past few days When Xuehu contacted you today, how did you get here in fifteen minutes" Tang Hai Kuo smiled and said: "Yes"。Just the other day, Secretary Yang didn't call me Asking if I would be willing to drive for Secretary Xiao. Of course I would! Not asking for anything else, just hoping for some stability. And besides, Secretary Xiao and Secretary Yang are both genuine, down-to-earth people who care about others. Plus, being able to drive for a leader like Secretary Xiao, well, this is definitely a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. 。I agreed immediately. 。However, Yang's secretary also told me that the city has recommended a driver to Secretary Xiao and he is still being used. 。But it should be leaving soon, so I'm ready at any moment. 。My son always says, "Opportunities are for those who are prepared"! So I talked to my mother and we decided to take a taxi along the line of Yue'du, Dongcao, and Shenzhen to do business. We waited for Secretary Xiao's call and once things were settled, we would bring them over from our hometown. 。To be honest, for a long time before that, although Secretary Yang didn't call me, business along the Guangdong-Guangzhou-Shenzhen line was much better than in Shantou. 。This month, I earned over 5,000 yuan more in Shantou than last month! I'll send it to my wife right away. 。"What do you think my wife said when she got the money"
"What did she say" Yang Xuehu asked. 。Tang Hai Kuo said: "Let me just drive here, don't go back." 。As the saying goes, "Soup without salt is like water, and a man with no money is like a ghost." Women at home still hope that men make more money. 。"Xiao Zheng smiled, finding Lao Tang's words amusing, but still reminded him: "But following me driving, I'm afraid you won't make as much money as you do driving a taxi." 。"Tang Haiku shook his head slightly and said, 'Driving a taxi is ultimately unstable. You're on the road all day long, and there are huge traffic risks! Who knows when, you'll be driving along and then just... disappear.'" 。I have two childhood friends who did the same job as me. They both got into car accidents and died, leaving behind their families… Oh well… I still have five children. The oldest is in college, but the youngest is still in elementary school. I am the pillar of my family, so I have to keep living. 。A little less money is fine, as long as it's stable. A steady flow is also a kind of wealth. We just need to save a little on spending. Bringing them up well and seeing them grow is the completion of my mission. 。Xiao Zheng couldn't help but lament that ordinary people's lives were not easy. If the pillar of a family fell, the whole family would be plunged into the greatest crisis. 。This can also be understood, why Tang Hai Kuo values the driver position of Xiao Zheng so much. 。Xiao Zheng asked again, "Since you care so much about personal safety, why did you take us to Guangdong during that typhoon, which was so dangerous You could have stopped halfway!" "That's not possible>>>" 。Tang Hai Kuo said, "You have to do what you promised." 。Our ancestors said, “Honesty always prevails in the end.” Honest people, because they are sincere and down-to-earth in their work, can truly achieve lasting success. 。That is to say, integrity comes first. 。Without integrity, nothing is left! Upholding integrity can influence the next generation. It's an intangible asset!
Integrity is an intangible asset. For a taxi driver to have such insight is already quite remarkable! Perhaps in one place there is a culture that cannot be said to make all the people there good, but insidiously, it will eventually influence the words and deeds of many people. 。Xiao Zheng thought, in this society, honest people still suffer losses materially. Those who are wicked and evil will exploit loopholes in the system to earn huge amounts of ill-gotten wealth, but ordinary people value honesty and can only earn money through hard work. 。。Yang Xuehu and Tang Hai Kuo saw Xiao Zheng staring out the window, silent. They thought that the leader must be considering something important and didn't want to disturb him. 。Tang Haiku's driving was both fast and steady, and after more than an hour, they entered Yue City. By this time, night had fallen over the city, and dazzling lights shone brightly. 。Xiao Zheng immediately called Zhang Qiumei, a Standing Committee member and Deputy Governor of the Provincial Party Committee: "Governor Zhang, I'm already in Yue City District and will arrive at Meili Hotel in about fifteen minutes." 。Xiao Zheng also gave Zhang Qimei the box number. 。Meli Hotel is luxuriously extravagant, with luxury cars lining up both inside and outside the lobby. 。Only Xiao Zheng and their car were an old-fashioned taxi, with a license plate from Shantou. 。In our society, there's a pervasive hierarchy everywhere you look. Even between cities, first-tier cities look down on second-tier cities, and second-tier cities scoff at third and fourth-tier cities. 。Guangzhou, this old-established first-tier city, also looks down on surrounding cities. 。The economic and social development of Shantou City has not been particularly outstanding among the many cities in Guangdong Province. 。Even the wealthy of Shantou would be looked down upon in Yue Capital, let alone a taxi driver. 。So, when other luxury cars like Rolls-Royce and Mercedes-Benz drop off passengers, the doormen will always go up to help open the doors. However, when they saw this Shenzhen taxi, these doormen all pushed each other away with disdain, and in the end, no one stepped forward >>> 。At this moment, a woman with elegant temperament and wearing a management uniform suddenly rushed out of the hotel "beep beep beep", hurriedly pulled open the door of the car rental. 。Xiao Zheng got out of the car: "Zhao Zong, we'll come in ourselves, you don't need to open the door for us." 。"Zhao Yanyan said, “Secretary Xiao, I'm so sorry. Please come in. Everything is ready." 。"Xiao Zheng said: "Thank you" 。He raised his hand slightly, letting Zhao Yunyan go first. 。The attendants were dumbfounded by the sight. 。They couldn't understand, what was going on What kind of high-profile person would take such a shabby taxi Zhao Zong actually went out to greet them personallyThe waiter rushed forward: "I'm sorry!" "I'm sorry!" They both apologized profusely, but Zhao Yinyan didn't look at them. The few waiters felt a chill down their spines, feeling that their jobs were probably going to be lost because of this temporary opportunism! Zhao Yinyan led Xiao Zheng and Yang Xuehu into the hotel, and instead of taking the elevator commonly used by everyone, they entered the staff-only elevator. This way, it could avoid being seen by unrelated people. 。Stepping into the elevator, a quiet atmosphere accompanied by a subtle fragrance. 。Zhao Yunyin said: “Secretary Xiao, Governor Zhang is already in the private room. I just sent her up and came down to get you.” 。"Xiao Zheng said: 'Governor Zhang, so early I'm so sorry to have you come out so early.'" 。"Zhao Yanyan said, "If Xiao Shuji were to be polite with me, I wouldn't know what to do." Xiao Zheng smiled and said, "Then I won't say polite words." 。Zhao Yunyao said: "This is better." 。"Secretary Xiao, my boyfriend Xiaofu, do you remember him" In fact, Fujiwara Jun, the chairman of Akawa Group, was older than both Xiao Zheng and Zhao Yunyan. However, Zhao Yunyan called him "Xiaofu," probably because she considered Xiao Zheng's position to be higher, so she addressed him that way. 。Xiao Zheng said, "Fu Dong, the chairman of Yachuan Group, how could I forget" Zhao Yunyan smiled and said, "Secretary Xiao, you have a good memory." 。Little Fu said he wanted me to accompany him to Dongcao to visit Secretary Xiao. He's asked me twice already. 。I was afraid to disturb Secretary Xiao's work, so I haven't contacted you. Today, Secretary Xiao happened to come over, so I would like to report his thoughts to you. 。“Zhao Zong, you just told me not to be polite, but you’re being so polite yourself!” Xiao Zheng said, “If you want to come, I certainly welcome you!” 。It's going to be a big day tomorrow. Some leaders from Hua Jing are coming to conduct an investigation, and both the main leaders of our municipal committee and municipal government will be accompanying them. Everything should be fine at other times. 。"You set a time with Mr. Fu, and you can just call me directly!" Zhao Yanyan said, "Okay, Secretary Xiao! I'll talk to Mr. Xiao after tomorrow." 。Xiao Zheng asked strangely, "Why wait until after tomorrow" Zhao Yunyan said, "Xiaofu is an impulsive person. When he thinks of something, he wants to do it right away, and once he starts, he wants to finish it." 。Xiao Zheng smiled and said, “With this kind of personality, it’s no wonder you’ve made such a big success in the electric vehicle business!”
The elevator arrived, Zhao Yuyan led Xiao Zheng into the private room. Zhang Qimei, the Deputy Provincial Governor, was indeed already inside. She was wearing a dark green tight-fitting top and gray wide-leg pants today. Her gentle smile was very infectious, and she stood up and extended her hand to Xiao Zheng: “You’re here” them to a banquet at the An County International Hotel in the evening. Some members had other appointments that night and wanted to take leave. 。When they heard that tonight was a celebration for Tan...
